There’s an incredible allure to trail running in the Flinders Ranges. The ancient and absolutely unique landscape, the mix of terrains and surface types, and the feeling of smallness surrounded by the enormous rock formations keep us forever pulled back to the red dirt.

The Ikara Ultra carries on the legacy started by the beloved Hubert 100, a foundational trail running event for the Flinders Ranges. That legacy continued when Ultra Series took over the Hubert 100 and grew it into the Irrational South 100/200 Mile. Murrayland Multisports Inc (MMI) took over the Irrational South following its final edition in 2024.

Multiple members of the MMI team ran the Hubert 100 and spent the last Irrational South learning how to run such a big and complex event in the Flinders. We also cooked up some ideas for how we’d adapt it to the Ikara Ultra in 2025. We’re exceptionally proud of the first Ikara Ultra, and the experience we gained has already been poured into making 2026 even better. We hope to see you pounding the Flinders Ranges for the next Ikara Ultra.

ABOUT MMI EVENTS

MMI Events hosts a diverse portfolio of events, encompassing road, trail running, gravel cycling, and kayak / bike / trail run adventure racing. There’s a common philosophy we build into every event:

• Safety. We love creating challenges and seeing people push themselves to achieve their absolute best, which means planning for when things might go wrong. We make every effort to ensure you reach the finish line. If not, we’ll do everything possible to get you home safely wherever your event ends.

• Respect. All of our events focus on people interacting with one another within a natural environment. Respecting the people and place around us is essential to the environmental and social sustainability of our events.

• Care. We have a fantastic event crew and network of volunteers who make the magic happen and that attitude trickles down through every part of an MMI Event. The community of people we attract is comprised of some of the nicest individuals around and we’re proud of that vibe.

• Achievement. It’s amazing what the human body and mind can achieve. Our events are designed to help you unlock that potential. We give you a challenge and the right kind of support to do your best and feel thoroughly satisfied at the end.
